And I was like, ‘Come on, he’s seven-years-old, referee, you can’t send him off.’ And he looked at me and was like, ‘Yes, I can.’ And I was like, ‘Ok, well, you can’t, he’s seven years old.’

Lads' night: Beckham meets Ross
Beckham, who has re-signed for LA Galaxy for next season, is desperate to be picked for the Olympics football tournament later this summer.
He said: “It being in the East End of London, and me being from the East End, and being British, of course, it’d be an amazing moment if I was selected. I had a call to say I’d been selected at that point…selected for the selection process. If I’m fit and healthy, then, hopefully I’ll be selected.

“Of course there are going to be benefits, of course it’s also costing a fortune, but there will be benefits and you won’t see those straight away, you’ll see them in years to come."
